reminds me of waldorf salad. whipped cream, walnuts, fruit. tastes amazing, looks like trash, probably contains six times the amount of sugar you need to have.

What's with this weird American habit of calling anything you slurry together in a bowl with goop on it a salad?

Like I don't like veggies either but I don't start calling random things salads so that I can sound like less of a fat gently caress.

waldorf salad is great.

Well, you Brits are the people who call a big block of pan-fried cheese 'rabbit' just to be less depressed about your generally terrible food and nutrition culture :rosbif:

(It's specifically a German-or-northern-european-immigrant/midwest thing; you won't find 'salad' referring to anything more outre than the option at chain sandwich places to get your contents in a bowl instead of between bread if you're in any kind of large coastal population center)

I'm a big fan of Chuckanut Broccoli Salad, which is a craisin/raisin and broccoli/bacon salad with a boiled dressing. It sounds and looks kind of awful but is in fact good.

quote:

CHUCKANUT MANOR SALAD
FOR DRESSING:
1 lg. egg whole
1 lg. egg yolk
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. dry mustard
1 1/2 tsp. cornstarch
1/4 c. distilled white vinegar
1/4 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. unsalted butter
1/2 c. mayonnaise

Make the dressing in a small bowl. Whisk together the whole egg, egg yolk, sugar, mustard and cornstarch. In a saucepan combine vinegar, 1/4 cup water, salt and bring the mixture to a boil over moderate heat. Whisk in the egg mixture and cook the mixture, whisking, for 1 minute or until it is thickened. Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the butter. Whisk in the mayonnaise and chill the dressing covered.


SALAD:
4 c. small broccoli flowerets
1 c. raisins
1 c. sliced mushrooms
1/2 c. chopped red onions
6 slices bacon, cooked until crisp and crumbled

In a large bowl combine gently the broccoli, raisins, mushrooms, onions and bacon and pour the dressing over the mixture. Toss the salad well and add salt and pepper to taste. Serves 6.

I'll admit I like pasta salad sometimes, but there's a big difference between the good stuff and the "ingredients: mayo, pasta, more mayo" poo poo you'll get at Aunt Cantcookforshit's barbeque. Or the "mayo, pasta, token vegetable particle, fake cheese(as in 'literally just colored starch with no flavor' levels of fake)" horrors you can get at the grocery store.

my fav pasta salad is italian dressing, fresh tomatoes, sunflower seed kernals, green onion and a tiny bit of either chicken or bacon, depending on how picky my guests are. it's the good poo poo.

Don't you disparage a hashbrown sandwich. It should be breakfast sausage in there, though.

Cheese and tomato. SMDH at the goons who have never seen melted cheese on tomato before.

There's no internal seed cavity tomatos would have.

And why're there diagonal stirations through the cheese.

I'll put my chips on slices of salami/pepperoni or something. You can see the fatty meat pattern poking around the cheese, and they look too sturdy and uniform in size to be tomato.

Actually no you'd have to cut the crusts off and not do the soy sauce. If it was just sweet crustless white bread, a ton of mayo and rice, that'd be Peak Glorious Nippon.

It's always struck me as weird that fake spray-cheese and Spam are more expensive than equivalent amounts of genuine meat and cheese. Is this a supply and demand thing? Are people really willing to shell out more money for aerosol dairy and boiled pig anus loaf than real food?
